I've never wanted wealth untold

My life has one design

A simple little band of gold

To prove that you are mine



Don't want the world to have and hold

For fame is not my line

Just want a little band of gold

To prove that you are mine



Some sail away to Araby and other lands of mystery

But all the wonders that they see will never tempt me



Their memories will soon grow cold

But till the end of time

There'll be a little band of gold

To prove that you are mine



I've never wanted wealth untold

But till the end of time

There'll be a little band of gold

To prove that you are mine
